EPIC 14 min. Caution goes on and on, Jerry is by far the most intense I've ever heard him on this song!

Labor Temple

Typically great '69 Star, and then some. Gets way outside the usual movements even before the verse. Middle jams are very trippy and emotional.

Great rec, this version definitely kicks major ass. One of my favorite '78s.

This is the infamous "Washoe zephyr" show but they are definitely ON for this number!!! Like Keith's piano work going into the jam and Garcia is just burning as brightly as that headlight...
